Marianne Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Do you have to be a betta australis member to enter? And I've never done this before, so is everything you need provided and you basically just show up with a fish? Or is there more to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadoh Posted April 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 No, you don't have to be a member of Betta Australis to enter Most of us have never done this before - we're all learning together. Everything is provided. All you have to do is make sure your entry form and fees are in by the due date, you bring your fish in during the designated days above and you pick it up during the times/day listed above :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadoh Posted May 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 All good Ness, this one really is a "practice run" so we have more than 1 person who knows how to set up for the BIG show in September. I'm trying to drum up a little more local support for this show so it will be more than a 2 horse race (1 of whom has a severe handicap) ... *lol* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briztoon Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Well Jarrod did all the work on the bettas. I was busy stirring up the cichlid guys, by telling them that they had mislabled one of their entries and that such and such fish has never been in Australia, and the fish they do have was a related and only recently described species, but definitely not what they had it entered as. And this caused them more problems than I anticipated as how do they judge a fish they have no current standards for. So their solution, judge it to the standards of the other fish anyway. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadoh Posted June 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Judging was tonight. I wonder how everyone went? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
